  1. Darkhorse did a great job. The problem is that Rowenwood needs to always be right in his own mind at the expense of appearing wrong in everyone else's.

  3. Dark did a great job?

    He got nailed on the "democracy is intrinsically violent" stuff
    by Turok.

    He also never backed up the notion that nothing matters
    simply because things come to end.

    But worst of all... he claimed we are all nihilists, which is
    obviously false, and failed to address that as well.

    So far... ive seen nothing but mere assertions, and then
    he conveniently ran away because rowen started
    trash talking.


    peace
